Hi,
I've been lurking for quite some time, as I had no time to splurge myself back into beyblades since I got married and had 3 kids. So, now Im back, having 3 sons, eldest is 5yrs old, next is 2yrs old and youngest is still 8 months...
I played beyblade back as a teenager, back when wolborg was unbeatable...
My eldest "enzo" got into beyblading pretty late as he loved toy cars and didn't knew anything about beyblading, until one weekend I got so bored, so I went to the a general merchendise store near my house just to buy stuff. I found these beyblades in the store, they were very cheap. So yeah, they were fake ones, and I've known about these new metal fight beyblades since Im seeing them aired in the TV, and I've been seeing them in Toy stores, (which I visit regularly). So I bought 2 fake sets, and brought them back home, introduced it to my eldest "enzo" and my 2yrs old "kaiser" these toys, and guess what they loved them!
HAHA! great, I did thought at first that these beys are kinda smaller that the ones I used to have, and the parts are quite simple compared the the parts and gimmicks of beys of my era. Also, I did thought this was kinda corny that these beys are now actually smashing with the metal ring, which was only used for weights before....
Later, found out that MFB series is quite technical as well, and customization is actually more fun on this series, since Takara had made the parts balanced in a way that each combo has a weakness... like playing MTG, there was no BEST Bey of all, unlike the ZOMBIES that ruled over my era...
so with my wife's approval, my salary now has a budget for BEYS! hehehe... so "enzo" has been playing for 2+ months already, joining local tournaments here in the Philippines, every weekends. Now we own alot of beys, sometimes I buy 2-3 of each bey or set... because I like testing stuff and collecting as well...
I still buy fake ones, but just for fun and testing, and some monstrous, crazy, frankenstein mods, I have customized several launchers already in the span of 2 months... basically did a High RPM brushless motorized launcher... and yeah also bought lots of techie geeky gadgets like contactless tachometer, electronic scale, HIGH SPEED Cameras...
so I am also into PHYSICS stuff, and Ill try to put it in lay mans terms, with Video/animation and photo representation along with uncut test videos...
yeah, basically you'll be hearing lots of me... and probably contribute to this forum as well... So i'll be like the Philippines' "AkirasDaddy" (if you know him)
Why Screwpapa? I just love the Screw Metal wheel.
